Walt Disney World

I went to Orlando Christmas last last year to do some shopping and went to Disney World while I’m there. My trip was only for three days and there was nothing much to do in such a short span of time. My goal really was just to spend some time away from the island and buy reasonably priced clothing among other things. I remember arriving on the 23rd of December and leaving on the 26th.

I have come to realize that shopping in the USA at this time of the year, apart from Black Friday, is not a good idea — mainly because everywhere is packed with people and almost all stores are already empty! So in the end, I had barely bought anything lol I just roamed around the park and enjoyed the rides.


If you are planning to visit too, all I can advise is book the partner hotel of Disney, Holiday Inn Resort – Orlando. I believe it’s cheaper if you buy it together with the airline and the Disneyland Park tickets, like some sort of a package deal with free shuttle service. Well it’s easy to find such deals, just visit their official website. I just bought everything online.


I would say Disney World will bring out the kid inside you. Remember those classic films we used to watch in the 90’s like The Little Mermaid, Snow White, Cinderella, etc? Well you will relive all those memories and rekindle the joy of your childhood in this magical place. They have musicals, dance numbers, and flash mobs every now and then, here and there.


I wish I can write my itinerary in full detail but sorry to say that I didn’t really have any. I just went with the flow and well I guess unplanned trips also turn out to be fun? Anyway, I hope you enjoy this and I hope my photos did some justice^^

  • A look back

    Have you ever had one of those moments where you would just suddenly stare in to space and all those past memories starts flashing back? Well I’ve had many of those moments the past few days, all triggered by simply glancing into my old canon camera, pill case by the night stand, dusty books, and many more. I know I had to go through so much to get where I am now, but really and truly, what matters the most is my personal growth for the past year. My mental health. I have been on SSRIs for about 8 months and I am happy to say that I’m now down to my last week! You have no idea how relieving it is to finally be…

  • Batabano Carnival

    Batabano Carnival

    Since it’s almost carnival season (but has been postponed until further notice), I will take you to trip down memory lane with me in last years celebration! Batabano Carnival  is an annual festival held in the Cayman Islands every month of May. The island is home to more than a hundred nationalities, most (if not all) of which participate in light of community spirit. It is a cultural celebration filled with music, dance, food, costumes, heritage and culture, and ofcourse booze! lol. It is a pretty young carnival that has only been going on for 30 years (thanks to Rotary Club!) The highlight of the festival is the street parade composed of masquerade bands and *drumroll please…..* exotic costumes! Last years parade started from the Seven…

  • Rainy day

    Rainy day

    From the title itself. I love rainy days. It calms me. It’s like the universe telling me to relax, everything is going to okay. The cool and breezy temperature; island people need a break from summer too. Anyway, a lot has changed since I’ve last written in this blog. It’s been more than a month since I was present here.  Even the Blogspot interface has changed lol. I moved out of my old place, I’ve left my job, and after a month I’m finally starting a career at my dream workplace — a Swiss Bank. Phew. Such a life development. I am looking forward to a better work environment, supportive colleagues, and weekends finally! I can’t believe I’m having my weekends off again after two…

  • Why can’t we just print money?

    Why can’t we just print money?

    Hey everyone, welcome to Food for Thought (a new blog series I launched last week) where I answer one common question and hopefully we both learn something from it. This week’s topic is a bit relevant to our current situation and one of the most famous questions asked at your basic Economics class: Why can’t the government just print more money to solve national issues such as poverty? The short answer is: Inflation. The long answer is: Let’s first start on why money was invented in the first place. Before fiat money (paper money which technically has no instrinsic value) was invented, our ancestors use the barter system. It is a system where goods and services are exchanged between entities. However, one of the major problems with…

  • Things that matter

    Things that matter

    As I was driving back home today, I found myself humming the tune of Oh My Angel. It is the official soundtrack of the Angel’s Last Mission: Love. The melody brought back all the emotions I felt while watching the series. It was such a peaceful drive back home, and I couldn’t help but appreciate the little things that make life worth living. It dawned on me that sometimes, all it takes is a moment to slow down, enjoy the view, and sing a nice song. It’s so easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of life and forget to be present in the moment. That’s why today, I’d like to share with you the simple and mundane things that make me…

    Crazy week, changes, small wins

    This week has zipped by so fast that when I look back, I canโ€™t even remember doing anything worth mentioningโ€”seriously, what even happened? ๐Ÿ˜‚ Thereโ€™s been so much going on around me lately. I keep telling myself not to let it get to me, but I think my body might be a better judge of that. I donโ€™t feel stressed out, but somehow itโ€™s showing up physically anyway. Work has been a bit of a madhouse recently. With two of my colleagues off on vacation, itโ€™s just been me and another coworker holding down the fort. Those two weeks were intense, but we made it through. And just when I thought things might ease up, my best friend at work decided to quit. Sheโ€™s putting…
